The Borgias: The Hidden History by G.J. Meyer

3.0

This work presents an extremely and undeservedly generous interpretation of things like: the papacy, the church, empire and emperors, and the cynical use of women (Lucrezia) and minority groups (Jews in particular) to shore up political power. The author had some good-ish points about how much of what the Borgias did was common at the time, but the aforementioned glaring lack of multiple perspectives on key points did not engender faith in this reader.
